The 2009 Yamaha FZ6R might resemble the aggressive R6 at first glance, but its actually a new fully-faired variant of the naked FZ6. Tweaked to appeal to newer riders who dont want to give up sporty looks or street cred, the FZ6R attempts to combine everyday rideability with decent performance. Does it deliver?

At the heart of the 2009 Yamaha FZ6R is an 600cc water-cooled inline-4 based on the FZ6 mill, with a number of mods including camshaft timing tuned for more low and mid-range torque and a larger air box. Mikuni fuel injection features four 32 mm throttle bodies, and the new engine promises 43 miles per gallon, an 8 percent improvement over the FZ6.

The powerplant mates to a 6-speed transmission, and a small mid-mounted 4-2-1 exhaust looks similar to the unit found on the R6. The engine acts as a stressed member, and is rigid mounted in a new steel frame. The front fork is a non-adjustable 41 mm SOQI unit, and the rear is a preload-adjustable SOQI. Brembo master cylinders grace the dual disc front and single disc rear brakes.

Compared to the FZ6, the FZ6R’s handlebar position is 12 mm rearward and 12 mm lower, while the seat is 4 mm forward and 2 mm lower; these changes shrink the rider triangle, making the bike feel smaller. The 30.9 inch tall seat can be moved up as much as 20 mm. Instrumentation features both analog and digital readouts.

Unlike all-out sportbikes, the Yamaha FZ6R is designed more for comfort than it is for super high performance. The reach to the handlebars isn’t very far, the saddle is well-padded, and though your knees bend a bit for foot peg placement, there’s nothing extreme about this bike’s ergonomics. In fact, after a days worth of riding there were no aches or pains to speak of-- save a few shivers from the cold ambient temperature.

The FZ6Rs instrumentation resembles the (like the Suzuki GSX650’s dash), but unfortunately the Yamaha lacks a digital gear indicator.

Twist the FZ6R’s throttle while the bike’s in neutral, and the engine’s relatively inoffensive exhaust note reveals a subtle top note of raspiness— nothing nearly as extreme as the R6’s titanium muffler, but that’s perfectly appropriate to this bike’s primary target audience: beginner and intermediate riders.

The clutch engages and releases with light lever effort, and the six-speed gearbox’s shift action feels precise. Acceleration is smooth and linear, with a powerband that feels flat and predictable. There’s a touch of vibration at around 6,000 rpm, but that doesn’t get in the way of leisurely riding all the way up to the nearly 12,000 rpm redline. Rolling on the throttle at around 1/3 of maximum revs reveals a bit of jerky acceleration, but again that quality is not significant enough to deter potential buyers. While cruising at 60 mph the engine rpms measured about 5,000 rpm-- a bit high for long distance rides.

Acceleration gets strong when you rev high enough, and though the engine is tuned for improved low and midrange torque, its 600 cc displacement prevents it from pulling too strongly. Handling is relatively nimble and stability is excellent, though more aggressive riders will want to dial in preload in the rear for crisper response. Unfortunately, the front shocks are not adjustable.

The 150 miles I spent on the Yamaha FZ6R passed quickly, and the bike handled very technical mountain roads well; it was flickable and powerful enough for spirited riding, but its somewhat upright seating position and smooth suspension added a level of comfort you just cant find in most sportbikes.

It may not have the edge of Yamahas ubiquitous R6, but thats exactly the point of the FZ6R: its a kinder, gentler take on the sportbike for those who want sporty looks without the wrist strain or the extreme performance. Given those parameters, the FZ6R is a satisfying ride for beginners and more experienced riders alike.

New Yamaha Byson 2010

Picture of New Yamaha Byson 2010

PT Yamaha Motor Kencana Indonesia or YMKI plans to unveil new sports product, Byson, in April 2010. This is because the earlier resignation had planned to release YMKI these products later this year.

"Just wait for four months from now," said the source from YMKI in Banyuwangi, Wednesday (2 / 12).

We have Yamaha Motor Manufacturing Indonesia (YMMI) has won a number type list numbers of motor vehicles produced in the Ministry of Industry 1195/IATT/TPT/11/2009 (Depperin) last November.

Manufacturers have proposed the amount of production to 80,000 units next year. Manufacturer bearing motor tuning fork will still carry the name for its newest product Byson. With the presence Byson, Yamaha fighting force in the national motorcycle market more robust, especially in the sports segment.

In India, this model is named after FZ and consists of several variants. This motor is more precisely a sports touring categories and engineered with the DNA Frazer.

Byson carrying 153 cc engines or larger than the V-Ixion, 149.8 cc. Of technology, the fuel supply system, V-Ixion more sophisticated, injection. While still relying Byson carburetor. Hence, the price is cheaper than expected V-Ixion.

FZ identity, or later transformed into Byson, using Monoshock suspension technology (Yamaha call monocross) with the special characteristics Muffler MidShip large. According to Yamaha, this design provides weight concentration of a better and efficient exhaust gas. Stable control for use in 140/60-17 rear tire.

Ultra-compact, lightweight, short stroke, 599cc, DOHC, 16-valve, liquid-cooled, in-line four-cylinder with lightweight titanium valves produces incredible horsepower. Redline is set at an amazing 16,000rpm. 67mm bore and 42.5mm stroke provide a fast revving powerplant. Engine width is minimized thanks to Yamahas special casting technologies and "liner less" cylinder design. Compact "pent roof" cylinder head design features ultra lightweight titanium valves for both intake and exhaust. The intake valve angle is 11.5 degrees and the exhaust is 12.25 degress. The intake valves are 27mm in diameter while the exhaust valves are 23mm.

Single intake valve springs reduce weight and "friction" for optimum high rpm performance. The valve retainers are made of lightweight aluminum. High flow intake and exhaust ports allow more fuel in and more exhaust out for great power delivery at all rpms. Lightweight magnesium cylinder head cover and case covers reduce weight. Separate cylinder block (the cylinder is no longer part of the upper crankcase) design utilizes ceramic composite plated "liner less" cylinder bores. The ceramic coating is sprayed directly on the aluminum block. The benefits are greater heat dissipation for consistent power delivery, reduced frictional power loss, reduced oil consumption and since there are no heavy liners, reduced weight too.

Lightweight forged pistons feature thin top rings for great high rpm power. The pistons are secured by lightweight tapered type piston pins. The lightweight design means fast engine response. Lightweight crankshaft features 31mm bearing journals. The inertial crank mass has been optimized for excellent throttle response and impressive acceleration. The crank journal bearings feature special oil holes that increase the supply of oil.

High lift / high performance, hollow, side-driven camshafts provide arm stretching power and strong acceleration. Automatic semi-hydraulic type cam chain tensioner reduces mechanical noise and maintenance.

Mikuni fuel injection system with 41mm throttle bodies features twin injectors (primary & secondary). This type of twin injector system is also found on our MotoGP M1 machine and the latest generation R1. Each of the injectors utilizes 12 spray holes to maximize the atomization process. The secondary injectors, located inside the airbox, begin to function at mid rpms (6,000 to 7,000rpm) thru to redline. This system is lighter and simpler than the sub motor driven secondary valve type FI system. Special short intake tracts allow for higher rpms and improved power.

The F.I. system features separate TPS (throttle position sensor) and APS (accelerator position sensor) sensors. Yamaha Chip Control Throttle (YCC-T) is another 1st for Yamaha. This system electronically controls the throttle valves for outstanding response and improved controllability at high rpms. The system features Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) and D.C. motor driven throttle valves. The YCC-T system electronically controls the throttle valves for outstanding response and improved controllability at all rpms. The YCC-T is used to provide even more control of the intake air volume for a smoother torque character. The YCC-T features 3 - ECUs inside the main ECU to control ignition, fuel injection and the YCC-T. This special ECU is capable of responding to changes at a speed of 1000th of a second.

YCC-I or Yamahas Chip Controlled Intake system means the intake funnels / stacks vary in length between 2 pre-set positions depending on engine rpms. The transition rpm is approximately 13,700 rpms. An electronic servo motor varies the funnels. The revolutionary YCC-I provides the best of both worlds …solid low rpm torque and power combined with an amazing high rpm rush. It takes only 0.3 of a second for the funnels to move from the tall to the short position.

Yamahas exclusive YCC-I electric-control servo motor-driven variable intake funnel system is a worlds 1st on a production motorcycle and works in conjunction with Yamahas fly-by-wire technology and FI systems.

7.6 litre air box utilizes a high flow viscous paper type air filter.

Ram Air Induction System with centrally located intake duct delivers cool, high-pressure air "force-fed" into the intake tract for optimal combustion and greater horsepower at higher speeds. This design provides straight induction from the central fairing duct to the airbox without a lot of bends or turns.

Close ratio 6-speed transmission delivers seamless power delivery and maximum acceleration. Gear widths, splines and engagement dogs have been optimized to handle the R6s power. The shift drum and shifting mechanism are located on the right side of the cases for smooth shifting feel under power. The gears use flat contact-type engagement dogs for positive shifting and great durability.

The "Tri-Axis" or stacked transmission design creates a more compact engine front to back that allows for optimum engine placement in the "sweet spot" of the frame for optimized weight distribution and incredible handling.

Slipper or back limiter clutch assembly reduces rear wheel hop when making hard down shifts or under hard braking. Key benefit is reduced lap times and smoother control when participating in either a race or track day. This clutch uses 9 paper based friction plates and 8 steel plates, plus 6 coil-type clutch springs.

The oil lubrication system has been optimized to reduce frictional loses caused by "oil drag". It features a "two side" oil pump. There is a separate liquid-cooled oil cooler to insure consistent engine temperatures for maximum performance and extended service life.

High capacity cooling system features a curved radiator with dual ring-type fans for excellent engine cooling efficiency. The ring-type fan offers more airflow than a conventional type fan.

Direct ignition coils, iridium dual electrode spark plugs and high-output magneto deliver reliable, super strong spark. With this system, the ignition coils are integrated into the plug caps, significantly reducing weight.

"Mid Ship" 4-into-2-into-1 exhaust maximizes engine performance. The header pipe diameter and length have been optimized for excellent flow. There are three, 3-way honeycomb catalyziers with an oxygen sensor in the system to reduce harmful HC & CO exhaust emissions. The oxygen sensor provides feedback to the ECU so it can adjust for the optimum fuel/air mixture. The "mid ship" MotoGP style, lightweight titanium muffler is located below the engine to central mass and lower the center of gravity for great handling.

The exhaust system also features Yamahas EXUP System (Exhaust Ultimate Power Valve) utilizing a titanium body and butterfly valves that prevent the "blow back" phenomenon caused by "valve overlap". This design reduces weight and maximizes cornering clearance. The EXUP system eliminates "flat spots" in the power band and reduces emissions too. This is a 1st on a 600cc supersport machine.

High powered 32 bit electronic control unit actually contains three ECUs inside the main ECU to control the FI system, the YCC-T system and the ignition system.

Air Injection System (AIS) injects fresh air into the exhaust ports to fully burn any unburnt fuel in order to reduce harmful CO & HC exhaust emissions

Yamaha YZF - R1 Silver Sport Motorcycle Wallpaper

Born from the award winning YZ competition bikes. YZ85 features a liquid-cooled. 84.7cc crankcase reed-valve-inducted six-speed that is compact and light. You also get an ultra-rigid, single backbone, semi-double-crade frame, fully adjustable suspension and more to suit a wide range of rider from novice to mini expert.

Yamaha FZ8 powerful but manageable enough to make his grandfather, R1, blush with pride.

As a final recipient Yamaha repli-racer heritage, in line-779cc Four is that some of the most striking technologies Yamaha Sport, to be used in everyday life, sports standards.

DNA FZ8 has its roots in the Premier Sports Yamaha, the YZF-R1. FZ1 motor current is derived from the pre-R1 crossplane. The new offspring will inherit R1-FZ1 inspired the perimeter frame is alloy, the chassis geometry, some engine components as well as many design elements of the compact and efficient motor.

Since we have already covered most of the technical details FZ8 a preview in our article we will focus on the reasons to believe this bike Yamaha is a good idea now, and how it is to ride.

Why is there

Yamaha says, after market research, has decided to bring the past to the Euro-FZ8 is only in the United States and Canada span the gap between 600cc 2011 1000cc sport bikes and street-oriented - but now that the half brushable Finally , a series of 8 siblings Fazer Canadian and Euro only.

Since 2005, "sports bike", including hyper-sports, sports bikes and sports tourers, are composed of about 20% of all U.S. motorcycle sales, Yamaha, says, second only to cruise ships, which constitute over 40% .

In exploring the demographics in these times of recession, Yamaha preview of gold in a trend of buyers who want a do-it-all sports. Some of these buyers will replace existing motorcycles, or trading up from smaller bikes, but also suggest a decrease of 9% in those who seek to add an extra bike in the stable.

53 Among the preferences of buyers looking for Yamaha, high on the list was the price positioning rider feasible, movement of large enough, color and design, size, easy to touch your feet on the ground, light and agile handling, fuel economy, and more.

In summary, the mission was to create a bike that is versatile and economical than ever, leaving passengers with sporting inclinations have their cake and eat it too.

After sampling an FZ8 for nearly 130 miles, over highways from canyons of the city, we would say that this new machine could probably do the trick.

How it works

Depending on whether you feel like a kind glass half full or half empty person, you can say FZ8 feels like 600 - but the power of the strongest 750 - or you could say its like a detuned, FZ1 lighter.

But while the 12.0:1 compression of the FZ8, share engine fuel injection housing FZ1 architecture, basic stroke and 53.6mm, it is incorrect to call it a smaller version of 11.5:1 compression sleeve FZ1 mill.

For starters, the FZ8 four valves per cylinder is brand new, as its short lift and duration camshafts and intake funnel new - 125mm in length for cylinders 1 and 4, and 150 mm in length for cylinders 2 and 3 - to contribute to broaden its range of power.

Along with the throttle body 35 mm - 10 mm narrower than the FZ1 - These features improve torque while providing a respectable high-end technologies.

Yamaha demand for energy, but the FZ8 is the maximum and minimum 11,500 mill would peak around 105 hp and 61 lb.-ft. of torque when measured at the crankshaft.

By the way, the crankshaft is the FZ1, but weighs 30% less, that Yamaha says it will further speed quickly, while a positive effect on treatment.

 

How? Although the weight of the FZ8 is 467 pounds-stop is only 20 pounds lighter than his older brother, Yamaha, said reducing the inertia of the crankshaft can be discerned in the way the bike transitions from side to side . Along with a narrower tire on the rear of 10 mm, said he FZ8 Yamaha 50 pounds lighter. We had an FZ1 for comparison, but less than the FZ8 has an agility that contrasts with its mass.

An overlap is also designed to be as accessible as possible. Coupled with a 32.1-inch seat height identical Yamaha said narrowed behind at 4.5 gallons fuel tank and front of the riders seat is just to help small jigs to the ground.

FZ8 driving position is a bit aggressive FZ1, but still pretty neutral and functional. The control rod is 5 mm forward, when the platforms are more than 15 mm and rear 10 mm lower.

And while the Yamaha has taken the trouble to deal with less weight, surprisingly, a 6 feet, 5 inches motojourno that was reported along the path, we had no discomfort either.

Even the display of unwanted stuff is its ability to function. Start-up is imminent, when it is deposited uniformly minimum of about 1100 rpm labeled analog tachometer, who lives next to the digital display speed, fuel, temperature and distance information. (At night, the backlight will be red.)

Turning on the gas produces an immediate response, the engine and its smooth power characteristics that are resistant to fall even as a beginner on the wrist. Torque supplied by a clutch - with less fiber and the metal plate that the FZ1 - along with a light clutch lever, the commitment to a snap for users.

FZ8 is a 17-inch Bridgestone Battlax BT021 sport touring tires - 120/70 front and 180/55 at the rear - was developed specifically for this, and to promote a predictable properties.

They range from 57.5 inch wheelbase sporting a 51/49, weight bias front / rear. The package is supported by a non-adjustable 43 mm KYB forks and preload-adjustable shocks, each with 130mm of travel.

It pulls down the road, or folders through the canyon of the wavy S-curves mile after mile, the installation works.

Travel riders was about 150 pounds more than 250 Even if no one griped too much sleep, it should be noted that the FZ1 is fully adjustable suspension. We think this would have been nice too FZ8 - but $ 2,000 less, this is one of the planned trade-offs. Riders wishing to refine the FZ8 can still do it old-fashioned way, by changing the fork springs and oil.

And really, the delivery is not really a problem. While the sources are not particularly firm, management just became a little less than inspiring confidence in my 185 pounds, more acute when more speed, charging hard through the rough pavement or patch repairs.

This ability to take what comes mainly because of the chassis FZ1. The aluminum frame built on large-perimeter and curved aluminum swing arm to keep everything in line of the horizon tilts the PEG high-angles, inspiring the riders to keep dipping deeper and faster.

The chassis is welcome given FZ8 engine is on average a little runner and is a powerful tool that you do not have to fast forward as an Indy car in a hurry, as you do with a 600 cc supersport

Although I admit a little anxiety about riding a strict OE sport-touring tires in a cool climate - and if I were, I would spend, sticky sport tires only the margin more power - no slipping during Stone Bridge Riding the busy, even running on a track was just average quality bows sprayed by snow showers.

And what a corner or 6-speed gears are well matched to engine power. FZ1 FZ8 transmission differs only lower than the final report and a lower gear before - which is, however, reported 74 mph hit the bouncing the rev limiter.

Sprint, the road 100 mph, and then there is a big problem, even if we try to see how high we can climb. Similarly, reverse thrust with 310 mm discs to capture a piece four-piston front and 267 mm rear disc is easy and predictable, regardless of the speed of the wheel.

4-in-2-on-1 with a catalytic converter, stainless steel exhaust with silencer Shorty obscured in style, radiating a powerful but suitably muted note. This is particularly true for the upper range, where - milder than the cameras or not - a snarl family is narrow in-line four-way pipe to the switch as a result of warp drive.

Miss the FZ1 is more than half fairing, the FZ8 is a limited protection against the elements, but the wind speed blocking reduces the need for more coverage, at least this time. Yamaha offers $ 129.95 in darkened polycarbonate screen (not tested), which can help, if desired.

Conclusion

If a race superior to the repli-racer has made no other motion was to create a technology rich storehouse ready for the task of re-bikes like Yamahas ultimate revelation of the Universal Japanese Motorcycle.

And for now, the $ 8.490 FZ8 is essentially in a class by itself. It offers 80% more torque at low and mid-range bike that does liter - instead of something like 55-60% typical for a poor 600 supersport. It is as agile as a 600, but the work area of ​​several thousand rpm lower will be easier to go to all these parties close tolerance inside.

Of course, with adjustable suspension and limited a bit heavier than the uber-competitive 600 Super Sport, its not really a direct opponent, but simply a competitive alternative for riders looking for an artist very talented.

In terms of displacement, the FZ8 best lines with parallel twin 798cc BMW F800R, we recently tested. Although not compare back to back, the FZ8 feels more powerful than the BMW $ 9,950. In terms of power, Triumph Street Triple 675cc is probably a close game, as is its $ 8899 MSRP

Under a steady hand, you should get 40 mpg or better - Yamaha says it has seen 201 miles on a full tank - and should be slightly less to ensure that the $ 10.490 FZ1. It costs only $ 1,000 more than FZ6R while a generation ahead in performance and technology - especially its frame and swingarm.

Other optional accessories FZ8 includes a frame mounted on center stand ($ 189.95) protection pads ($ 129.95), engine guards, steel ($ 199.95), a passenger in the seat cover cover ( $ 229.95) Bolt Grab bars on the passenger ($ 119.95), a lower cover ($ 219.95) covers the radiator, ($ 99.95), tank bag ($ 89.95) and much more.

Unfortunately, the most useful options - ABS - as offered in Europe are not available in the U.S.

Offered: Raven (black) this year alone, says that Yamaha is now shipping FZ8, and met an enthusiastic reception of U.S. retailers who have pre-ordered an undisclosed amount, which, however, is a Yamaha reps happy. They say that the assumption is that this is a bike that should be sold.

After collection of heavyweight versatile, we can certainly see why it may be.
